Description

This dedication is for a very dear friend of mine Marcia Gomes (MarciaGomes). Marcia and her husband Flavio Kern are truly wonderful people and almost like family to me. Marcia is a very caring lady and it shows in the lovely images she creates. Her art always has a happy and postive theme, and her gallery is a great place to go for a good time. This is a story Marcia shared with me from her childhood that I wanted to share with all of you my friends. With all the negative news everywhere it's nice to have something happy to focus on.

Rodeo Queen (For MarciaGomes): When Marcia was a little girl her and her dog Gaby would walk by her aunt's home every day on their way home. She loved the beautiful horse that her aunt had and she dreamed one day of riding it. But poor Marcia was by herself and had no way of making her dream come true. Late one evening Marcia saw the horse had a bridle on and she got a great idea. Her and Gaby went into the pen and she tied the bridle of the horse to the fence. Carefully Marcia climbed a tree next to the horse, she had a great idea of leaping from the tree onto the back of the horse. Then she would be able to ride him and make her dream come true. I tried to capture that moment here and hope you like it. Okay so you want to know what happened ? Well Gaby started barking and scared the horse just as Marcia was jumping. The horse moved and poor little Marcia tumbled to the ground. Thanks for listening, hope you got a smile.
Dave

P.S. I know Marcia would want me to say this but we are both very sad about Cecilia (SSoffia) leaving the communtiy. She wrote me a letter the other day to tell me that a few people had been very mean to her and she no longer felt comfortable here. It is a sad day when someone that nice no longer feels welcome. I am trying to talk her into staying and hope you will join me.

Dave, what a wonderful image and tribute to MarciaGomes. Once again your image brought a smile to my face. What a wonderful story. I am so sorry to hear your friend has left our community. I hope you are able to talk them back. It is so sad that people can be so mean. I don't understand the mentality of some people. Perhaps they don't feel very good about themselves and the only way to make feel better is to be nasty to others. Sad! hugs Trac

Nice image, Dave. In a way it's a good job the dog barked horse moved. If she'd landed square on it the horse might have bolted, taring the fence down and carrying poor Marcia away. Anyway, a great depiction of this adventure.

Very nice! Excellent posing and expressions as I've come to expect from your images. Love that little dog!

Sorry to hear your friend would wrather leave than create some art beating up the uglies... that's how I deal with it... which, I haven't had to. Tell her to write these people. Sometimes, we get upset at people, but it brings us closer.... I have a few people here that I consider great friends and we've had our differences. GOOD NEWS - I KNOW YOU WERE LOOKING FOR SOME... I got me a new computer and should be posting again soon. Old computer was damaged... I'll tell everyone about it on my first upload. I love the detail in this horse's face... can you open the mouth to see the teeth? I haven't seen a horse here that shows it's teeth and would like one for my fantasy football logo... My team name? Da Bronx - Broncos are my favorite team. YOU HAVE BEEN FAVORITIZED!!!

This image is absolutely priceless and captures the mood of the moment so well. Even though Marcia missed getting on the horse, I know that this is one memory that will be treasured for all time. Marvelous work and one that I'm glad you shared with all of us.

oh, I love the expression on the girl's face so much! the horse looks very realistic and the doggie is just plain cute! and wow, what a great background is peeking through the trees. I see why the dog barked... he found a bird to bother! :) this story is so cute, I can see it all so clear, what a great memory to have.

Delightful image. Such a shame that soeone feels they have to leave because of the inconsiderate acts of a few. There are so many wonderful people here. I hope things get straightened out.

Absolutly charming my friend, hope Marcia wasn't hurt in the resulting fall, and did she ever make her dream come true?

You captured the moment just beautifully in this image Dave!! What a very sweet dedication and a beautiful story too! I will definitely join in on convincing Cecilia to stay. She is a wonderful sweet person and artist also! I have had my ups and downs here too and was about to give up a couple of times also. But I stopped and just thinked a minute and said to myself no, that would be definitely giving those certain people just what they wanted!! There are a many people who just don't care if they hurt your feelings or not and I think that is very sad! Excellent and very beautiful, but beautiful work!!

What a wonderful scene, story and dedi :) Fantastic posing and expressions. It sure brought a big smile to my tired face. I saw SSoffia's post and also expressed my wish that she stay with us. It's so sad that this happens.... I hope those who know her better than I can convince her to ignore the "uglies" and hang in here. Another wonderful render Dave... you brought the story alive for all of us :)

Your image is a very well work, i like the light and shadow you made. The scene is amusant and lovely. Birds, dog and horse seem like people. Piece of sky behind is great. Ssoffia makes very pretty works, i have been often in her gallery. She should come back. A handful of stupidity is dust comparing to an ocean of caring and Artship. Better way to answer is standing still, even if it could be not easy for her.
